ASIA WORLD FACTBOOK (15 points) Use the information collected in class from the CIA World Factbook web site to answer the following questions. 1) Create 4 bar graphs -2 per page (Israel, Jordon, Syria, Lebanon) a. Population b. Land Area c. Life Expectancy d. GDP 2) Which countries have the largest and smallest land areas? (list counties and areas) 3) Which countries have the largest and smallest populations? (list countries and rounded pop.) 4) Four all 4 countries in #1, take the population divided by the area to get Population Density/sq. km- list below from the most dense (most people per square km) to least dense. 5) How does density compare to area in these 4 countries (does high density = large area, etc) 6) How many countries have Islam (Muslims) as a primary religion? 7) How might this affect Israel’s relationships with its neighbors? 8) Using your graphs, list the top 4 GDP countries and the top 4 Life Expectancy GDP Life Expectancy 9) What conclusion can you draw about GDP’s effect on Life Expectancy? 10) Compare GDP of countries with oil and without oil. In SW Asia, how much of GDP is dependent on oil exporting, generally speaking? Why might this result in conflict?
